Planned publications

The SIG plans to publish three issues of Learning Learning in 2012, one of which will be a special issue with the Realising Autonomy Conference Proceedings. Other SIG publication projects include some short e-books on different areas of learner development. Contact Alison Stewart, SIG publications chair, for more details.

SIG book projects

We are pleased to announce that the full text pdf versions of AYA and MAYA will soon be available for download. AYA is now out of print, so after we have contacted all the authors, we'll make the downloads available. We are also working on splitting the files to allow downloading the individual chapters. When our last printed copies of MAYA have been distributed, MAYA too will be available in full text and chapter by chapter formats.
